The newcomer... the Zuiko 75mm f/1.8 with its impressive front huge lens: a "cat's eye" to (almost) see in the dark! |
A 75mm f/1.8 lens has come: so, let's bokeh!
So... all right, I must admit: despite my previous opposite statements, I couldn't resist... and ended up buying another lens (who knows if it will be the last?), this one: M.Zuiko Digital ED 75mm f/1.8 (it's a pre-owned lens, obviously, but in excellent conditions: it was reported as "just like new").
This time I succumbed to the flattery that described it as very bright and extremely sharp: the vlogger Robin Wong (an enthusiastic, expert and communicative professional photographer based in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, until recently an "Olympus visionary") dedicated two enthusiastic videos to it on his YouTube channel:
- "Olympus 75mm F1.8 -The Sharpest Lens for Micro Four Thirds?"
- "This Lens Stopped Me From Going Full Frame - Olympus 75mm F1.8"

Buds, small flowers and... cauliflowers?
Time for macros! | |||
To celebrate the arrival of Spring, I'm posting here the link to a Google Photo's gallery containing a series of more or less extreme macro images, shoot to some seedlings looking as "promising" from a photogenicity point of view Given the small size of the subjects, practically all the images were obtained with the Focus Stacking digital technique, dramatically effective just in the macro photography field |
Note: this is the first article of my rebuild site as well as the first article in multilingual format...
